A practical pre-contract routine

Run one short drill, verify your selected weapon/attachment setup, and only then launch a contract. That gives you a clean baseline when a run goes wrong: you can tell whether the problem was aim, movement, route choice or the loadout itself.

What is not confirmed yet

The store page does not publish final unlock costs, progression order or the complete reward table for training stations. Those details belong in a post-launch update, not a pre-release guess.
